.DISCUSSION...
Shower and thunderstorm chances will increase to their peak
this evening, but may linger overnight. Some of the late day
and evening storms may be strong or severe. Heavy wetting rains
are expected with the passage of the system, which will be
completed overnight and lead to a much cooler and ultimately
drier air mass that works across the area as we head into and
through the weekend.
